@Bryan Schiessl I think I may be able to help here. 

The following is a map that shows the concentrations of 2-4 unit multifamily buildings in various areas within the Phoenix market. The data comes from the most recent American Community Survey. There are an estimated 57,983 2-4 unit structure in the Phoenix Area.

As @Pamela Sandberg stated, these kinds of properties typically are situated in riskier areas and the data backs that claim up. 

This chart shows the average percentage of structures that are 2-4 unit buildings, tabulated by the areas risk score (A to F)

The correlation is strong for sure. That being said, there are areas with 2-4 unit buildings that are C or higher grade. 

The last map show the risk score for the Phoenix market, which if you don't know what that means, you should read this:
